Meeting this am, but I can't eat anything there, which is good. At 1:45 I can go back to other foods. It's a 25 hour window of avoiding certain things that are on the list. Egg whites for breakfast this am and I can have butter. Avoiding things with too much Iron.

Akk..164 this morning..No sugar challenge for this little cheetah...I have my blood tested in a week or so, so need to clean out the pipes..

No, Dh is having a lot of fun with his new hearing aids. He programmed them into his phone, went to the coffee shop this am and played with the settings. It's all good..
The worst noise is crinkling paper. My friend told me the same thing..Chip bags are soon noisy when you are trying to break into them.

Barbo, I'm basically back to a low carb plan with intermittent times of intermittent fasting! I was cheating on carbs, so I'm back to low carb.

The beach!!! Here we are yesterday with snow blowing and icy roads. I-44 was a pileup of semis around Rolla. We need the beach or at least some sand to cover up the ice! Sounds like fun..

We are going to spend the night in BA on Friday. Gary is having his hearing aids checked, then heading to BA, will spend the night and meet Sarah's parents for breakfast with the kids. We will drive where their new house is going to be!

Heading to the allergy dr today. Hope I pass Iron. It will be the 5th time..then I go on to Vitamin A..

I'm in Brownsville, TX. The Tip o' Texas, as they call it. We had some very cool days here this winter too but nothing like up north. Now the summer weather has finally arrived and we're loving it and trying to make up for lost time, lol.

Back from vacation and back to IFing.
I was in a situation where the last week of our vacation was spent with friends where the guy was a "breakfast" guy.
He made French toast, grits, etc.
And I thought it would be so rude to not eat it, so both DH and I ate every breakfast.
DH ran very high blood sugars.

I'm sure dh's numbers will drop once you are in control of the kitchen.

Went to my 6th month checkup. The nurse asked me I wanted to weigh, I told her no. I love that nurse.. well, hormones are too low do they are upping my troche and giving me a cream to add to my progesterone pill. She said thyroid meds were okay, but I have antibodies trying to kill my thyroid, so we will have to watch it.

Well it sounds like you are on the right track with hormones and thyroid.
You don't already have Hashimoto's, do you?

Going to spend the night with a friend tonight. She has a free night at a casino. We've done it before and it's fun and we eat poorly.
Just what I need!

My great nephew's birthday party is tomorrow at my sister's. She suggested the parents would like a gift of a big container of Jennifer's Splendid GF Bake Mix (used for our favorite pizza crust), and some pre-baked pizza crusts. So I'll get on that before I take out my vacation clothes and scramble around to think of something to wear... won't be formal attire, that's for sure!

Sandy I remember more than 10 years ago when we were working in Carolyn's area, DH didn't bring his insulin that day, and that Oswego drugstore fixed him right up. They were wonderful.

We went to Dana Point, CA for about a week then went up to Seattle for about a week. DH says we're really good moochers.
Friends were kind to keep us and do things with us.
We NEVER take vacations, so this was really nice for both of us.
I turned 60 while I was in California and liked being out there instead of here. I know I'd have been in a funk if I'd have been home.

No the parents aren't diabetic. They just don't want to feed their little one junk. I give them 6 more months and they'll be feeding him crackers and stuff.

Are you suggesting Oswego pharmacy for the natural thyroid meds? I get my hormones by mail from Medical Arts pharmacy in Missouri and they're great!

Love that part of California Judy!! And what a fun place to turn 60!! Glad you had a good time.

I've been pretty loose and free with eating lately and quess what? The scale is creeping up. So I really need to rein it in NOW! I did the same thing last year. The first 2 months were pretty good and then that 3rd month I got a bit lazy.

I'm sure for as little energy as I expend one meal a day makes perfect sense. So Kathie Lee is probably right. She's quite thin, I think, actually.

I had to wait a week to get my nature throid here before they could fill the 90 tablets. I had plenty before I would run out, though.

The parents were pretty happy with the pizza crust and the GF baking mix. I also made 3 little chocolate cakes using one of Ouizoid's recipes, frosted with chocolate buttercream frosting. Wow they were good.
I need to make a couple more for DD. I was going over to babysit this afternoon, but she's just texted she was up all night with 1-yr-old Milo (breathing treatments) and she's having a kidney stone. So I might be needed earlier, poor thing.

WOW. DD and I have both had so many kidney stones. How is it we don't know about any dissolving medicine??? Carolyn will you please ask your friend what that medicine is? She's drinking lemon water like a camel and we took a walk and in the mean time she's got a heating pad on the painful area, but that's all we know to do.

We took Maddox home and played with him and fed him, then took him back home. Little Milo has had a rough week I guess with allergies. He got tubes in his ears last week. But if Milo has rough nights, DD has no sleep, of course. Now put a kidney stone on that...

Waiting on the edge of my seat to hear the kidney stone dissolving medicine...

Hey 3 girls........lol. We have thinned a bit this month. I just ordered the hearts of palm pasta substitute in a can from Netrition and also their shiratke noodles with oat fiber. Heard the oat fiber makes a huge difference. I will report back!

She threw the bottle away BUT now has the same symptoms...back pain and dark urine. It helped for a while, but she is going back to the doctor...hope your dd does okay. Not pleasant..she might need the blaster..

Cindy, will look for the hearts of palm pasta...sounds great. How are your 2 furry guys?

Poor ds had a hard time with his CPAP last night. We think he might need to try this on a Friday so he doesn't have to worry about sleeping..

Coloring my hair..Went to Walgreens early to grab a random color..Then I read this morning with my one hooligan and one sweet boy..LOL..

Poor Kathy with her pain..The first time it hit, she was on her way to Tulsa for a fun weekend and going to the Two Cellos concert. She soldiered through it..thought she was better, then
wham, it hit her again.
